Djibouti has accused Dubai state-controlled DP World of infringing on the East African nation's sovereignty and refusing a fair settlement in the high-stakes struggle over operation of the strategic port.
In an exclusive statement to TradeWinds, Djibouti authorities claimed Dubai's state-controlled DP World of seeking to "take control over the whole of Djibouti's coastline and beyond". But DP World representatives pointed to a series of arbitration awards in its favour showing that Djibouti has seized its terminal there illegally.
